One delayed passengers wrote on the easyJet Facebook page: “My journey this morning started at 5.30am driving across the border from Poland, so of course the delay is a disappointment, as it adds more time to my already long journey.

“Your check-in staff were very nice and they offered me a voucher for refreshment worth €4.50 while I wait for my delayed flight.

“I do not know if whoever decided the value of this voucher has ever tried to buy a sandwich and a drink from the airport before, but believe me you can’t.”
